Master degree

A target of all four partners was to establish a Joint European Master Programme, accredited according to national legislation and institutional procedures to be valid and recognised in each of partner university countries. By achieving this goal the Consortium of the partner universities provides the students a true Joint Master Degree.

Students that finish the Master TRIBOS Programme are jointly awarded the degree corresponding to the following equivalents in the Joint Degree consortium:

• Magister inženir tribologije površin in kontaktov (University of Ljubljana)

• Degree of Master of Science (Engineering) with Distinction (University of Leeds)

• Mestrado Conjunto Europeu em Tribologia de Superficies e Interfaces (University of Coimbra)

• Masterexamen huvudområdet Maskinteknik inriktning Tribologi (Technical University of Luleå)

The key academic groups of TRIBOS consortium are leading and world renown in their own field of Tribology and Surface engineering. They are very complementary from point of view of surfaces, lubricants and interfaces, as well as engineering component design. Thus, their involvement in a single programme enables integration of the whole range of tribology sub-areas required for successful application solutions.
